The western hognose snake is a small, stout-bodied snake with an upturned nose that looks a bit like a pig's snout. It lives across much of North America, from southern Canada to northern Mexico, in sandy and gravelly places such as prairies and grasslands. It is often mistaken for a rattlesnake, but its bite is not regarded as dangerous to people.1

यसले के खान्छ?

It mainly eats amphibians, such as large and medium tree frogs, small or medium toads and small lizards, and occasionally a rodent. It is not a true constrictor, so it bites and chews, driving its rear fangs into prey.1

यसलाई कसरी चिन्ने

Relatively small and stout-bodied, with adults rarely exceeding 40–50 cm in total length, tail included.1
A modified, upturned nose scale gives it a distinctive hog-like snout.1
Colour and pattern vary a great deal between subspecies and individuals.1
When threatened, it flattens its neck, hisses and may puff up its throat with air.1

प्रायः यससँग झुक्किइन्छ: To an untrained eye, most individuals look much like rattlesnakes, which is thought to be a form of mimicry that makes predators wary. Its upturned snout and small, stout body are features to note.1

विष शक्ति

टोकाइ

टोक्दा यसको विषदन्त वा दाँतबाट विष निस्कन्छ।

टोक्दा वा डस्दा यसको विषले के गर्छ?

The snake releases modified saliva from its Duvernoy's glands, which runs down a groove in its rear fang and helps break down the toxins of toads it eats. No deaths or whole-body (systemic) effects in people have been recorded from its bite. Bites may occasionally be medically significant.1

यो मानिसका लागि कति खतरनाक छ?

The species is not dangerous to people and is not regarded as venomous. Its bites are extremely rare, and no deaths or systemic effects have been recorded. Bites may uncommonly be medically significant.1

डराउँदा यसले के गर्छ?

It flattens its neck, hisses and may make mock strikes with its mouth closed. If harassed further, it usually plays dead rather than biting.1

यसले टोक्यो भने

टोकेको ठाउँ धोऊ, व्यक्तिलाई शान्त राख र चिकित्सकीय मद्दत लेऊ। केही प्रजाति (जस्तै बुमस्ल्याङ) घण्टौँपछि प्राणघातक हुन सक्छन्।

सधैँ पहिले आफ्नो आपतकालीन नम्बरमा फोन गर (112, 000, 911)। यो सामान्य प्राथमिक उपचार मार्गदर्शन हो, चिकित्सकीय सल्लाह होइन। प्राथमिक उपचारका आधारभूत कुरा

सुरक्षित रहू

जंगली जनावरलाई कहिल्यै नछोऊ, नसमात वा नजिस्काऊ, सानो भए पनि, र सुतेको वा मरेको जस्तो देखिए पनि।
यसलाई ठाउँ देऊ। कुनै भेट्यौ भने शान्त रहू, बिस्तारै पछाडि हट र त्यसलाई आफ्नै बाटो जान देऊ।
कुनैले तिमीलाई टोक्यो भने: शान्त रहू, नचलीकन बस, आफ्नो आपतकालीन नम्बरमा (112, 000, 911) फोन गर वा छिटो अस्पताल पुग। त्यो कस्तो देखिन्थ्यो सम्झ, फोटोले मद्दत गर्छ।

तथ्यहरू

Captive breeders have produced more than 50 'designer' colour morphs of this snake.1

In captivity, many hognose snakes refuse food for about two to three and a half months, from January to mid March, because they instinctively brumate, or sleep, underground in winter.1

Males are considerably smaller than females.1

Hatchlings reach sexual maturity after about two years, based mostly on size rather than age.1

भ्रम तोड्ने

भ्रम: Because it looks like a rattlesnake, it must be dangerous or deadly.

सत्य: The western hognose snake is not dangerous to people. Its rare bites have not caused recorded deaths or whole-body effects, and it usually plays dead instead of biting.1
